I’m excited to share my latest project, **QuillQuail** , an AI-powered storytelling app that turns tiny prompts into full-fledged stories, complete with images and narration!

 ![_e4b2a128-c809-46ac-98d0-2fffb0dcae2e](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/f/0/f091ab357c410defd038e7bad6c7d8e397fc2011.jpeg)

### What QuillQuail Does:

1. **AI-Generated Stories** : Just input a small prompt like “A cat with a secret identity,” and watch as the app crafts a complete story for you.
2. **System Prompting** : I’ve used multiple template columns to feed my own ‘system’ prompting into each stage, ensuring the generated story and title are coherent and engaging.
3. **Image Generation** : Currently, I’m using Bing to manually generate images based on prompts given to DALL-E 3. These images add a visual element to each story. (DALL-E 2 is not nearly as good yet).
4. **Narration** : I’m also manually adding a voice-over to each story. I copy-paste the story script into an AI voice-over app and upload the .mp3 file into QuillQuail, making the stories more immersive.

### What QuillQuail Doesn’t Do (Yet):

1. **Automated Image Generation** : As of now, the image generation process is manual. I’m looking to automate this in the future.
2. **Automated Narration** : The voice-over process is also manual at this stage. I plan to integrate this into the app for a seamless experience.

### Looking for Feedback:

1. **User Experience** : How easy is it to navigate the app and generate a story?
2. **Story Quality** : Are the AI-generated stories engaging and coherent?
3. **Feature Requests** : Any features you’d like to see in future updates?
4. **Automation Ideas** : If you have suggestions for automating the image and narration processes, I’d love to hear it.

This is a nice initiative. Would love to see the app when you can automate with DALL-E 3.

For voiceover, maybe something like [Eleven Labs](https://elevenlabs.io/) can help you with that.

I generated a story, it’s 4 paragraphs long but maybe it can be a bit longer when you can scale the app. The story is good though.

I might want to see a “The Best” tab. People can upvote a story and we show the best stories over there.

Appreciate the feedback!

For sure I’ve got a favorite function on there along with a view counter that could be used to categorize the stories.

As for the length, I agree it’s something that I can tailor a bit more. I want to build more “levers” for users to be able to pull to guide their story from the initial prompt.

I’m hoping to be able to leverage DALL-E 3 automatically somehow along with the narrations.  
Its an interesting project and hopefully I’ll learn how to utilize a custom API potentially outside of the out of the box glide integrations.
